I thought that they may have been taking turns beating her up and that is why the ambulance was rocking from side to side outside the French National Museeum for five minutes. Maybe they were aborting her, then outside the hospital jumped on her to give her injuries that would be consistent with a car accident but would kill her. There seems no other explanation why it took so long to get her to hospital ( 00:23-02:06 = 103 minutes or 01:43 minutes. Diana was in the tunnel from 00:23-01:44 = 81 minutes. She was in the ambulance from 01:06-02:06 = 60 minutes). Where they just waiting for her to die of her injuries or did they inject her with Suxamethonium chloride (INN), also known as suxamethonium or succinylcholine. That is virtually undetectable after death unless you test for it and know to test for it. So the question arises WHAT WERE THEY DOING IN THE AMBULANCE? Inflicting injuries? Raping her? There were not performing cardiac massage because according to medical student Jean Marc Martino, Diana hadnt arrested. Cardiac massage requieres total absence of movement. So again what were they doing? Was the rocking ambulance ever photographed or seized as a potential crime scene for forensic investigation? No it wasnt. Why wasnt it? Thierry Orban and Pierre Suu photographed the rocking ambulance but were refused to give any evidence, at the London Inquest. It doesn't add up that Diana would be transported to a French Military Hospital at all considering her status, wealth and foreign status. All VIP´s in France are taken to either Val de Grace or the American Hospital to highly specialized Hospitals, which are closer to the Alma Tunnel than La Pitie Salpetriere Hospital. The MI6 ambulance drove by five hospitals. Another matter is that Diana would have had Travel Insurance/Insurance and a treatment/medical plan should she become injured in another country- This is something most seasoned travelers and Royals, Wealthy, Public Figures and Celebrities think of particularly to countries like Asia or France, and also with countries that have either questionable hospital/health systems like ASIAN COUNTRIES & FRANCE or have non reciprocal Medicare/Health treatment with their own countries. That is also something I have never heard raised in court. What was Diana's Medical treatment Plan while overseas AND WHY WASN'T IT PUT INTO EFFECT? Surely she would carry that plan with her﻿
Thanks Camilla...

The final, haunting photo of Princess Diana, taken on the night she died, shows her sitting with her boyfriend Dodi Fayed in the back of a Mercedes car as it roars away from the rear entrance of the Paris Ritz Hotel, heading for the couple’s secret love-nest near the Champs-Elysees.

Diana is twisting her head to peer out of the Mercedes’ rear window, anxiously looking to see if her car is being chased by the paparazzi who had besieged her and Dodi since their arrival in the French capital from a Mediterranean holiday eight hours earlier.

At the wheel is chauffeur Henri Paul. Dodi’s bodyguard Trevor Rees-Jones is in the front passenger seat.

What happened over the next two minutes is central to a new probe by Scotland Yard into an astonishing claim from an SAS sniper, known as Soldier N, that members of his elite regiment assassinated Diana seconds after the Mercedes sped at 63mph into the notoriously dangerous Pont d’Alma road tunnel.

Many will dismiss Soldier N’s claims as yet another conspiracy theory. After all, millions of words have been written about Diana’s death at 12.20am on Sunday, August 31, 1997.

Two inquiries, by Scotland Yard and the French police, have found the deaths were a tragic accident.

An official inquest, which ended five years ago, came to the same conclusion.

The world was led to believe the blame lay with the grossly negligent driving of an intoxicated Mr Paul and the pursuing paparazzi.

But — however unlikely they may seem at first glance — I am convinced there is something in Soldier N’s claims.

Ever since Diana’s death at the age of 36, I have investigated forensically the events that led up to the crash and what happened afterwards.

I have spoken to eye-witnesses, French and British intelligence officers, SAS soldiers and to friends of Diana and Dodi. And I have interviewed the Brittany-based parents of the 41-year-old chauffeur Henri Paul. They told me, with tears in their eyes, that their son was not a heavy drinker: his chosen potion was a bottle of beer or the occasional Ricard, a liquorice-flavoured aperitif.

The fact is that too many of these accounts suggest that Diana’s death was no accident.

Crucially, my investigations show that the paparazzi who supposedly hounded Diana to her death were not even in the Pont d’Alma tunnel at the time of the car crash.

They also reveal how a high-powered black motorbike — which did not belong to any of the paparazzi — shot past Diana’s Mercedes in the tunnel.

Eyewitnesses say its rider and pillion passenger deliberately caused the car to crash.

In addition, my inquiries unearthed the existence of a shadowy SAS unit that answers to MI6, as well as the names of two MI6 officers who were linked by a number of sources to Diana’s death.

Could the Establishment really have turned Henri Paul and the paparazzi into scapegoats? Could there have been a skilful cover-up by people in powerful places to hide exactly what did happen?

There is little doubt that Diana, recently divorced from Prince Charles, was a thorn in the side of the Royal Family. Her romance with Dodi, though only six weeks old, was serious.

The Princess had given her lover her ‘most precious possession’ — a pair of her deceased father’s cufflinks — and phoned friends, saying she had a ‘big surprise’ for them when she returned from Paris.

Dodi had slipped out of the Ritz Hotel, as Diana was having her hair done, to collect a jewel-encrusted ring adorned with the words ‘Tell Me Yes’ from a * Paris jeweller. It came from a collection of engagement rings.

Rumours were circulating, too, that the Princess was pregnant. Photographs of her in a leopard-print swimsuit, on holiday in the South of France 14 days earlier, show an unmistakable bump around her waistline.

And, as the Mail revealed after Diana’s death, she had visited — in the strictest secrecy — a leading London hospital for a pregnancy scan just before that photo was snapped.

To add to the disquiet, the mother of a future King of England and head of the Church of England was threatening to move abroad with her Muslim boyfriend and take the royal Princes, William and Harry, with her.

Dodi had bought an estate, once owned by film star Julie Andrews, by the beach in Malibu, California, and shown Diana a video of it. He told her the sumptuous house was where they would spend their married life.

Ostracised by the Royal Family and stripped of her HRH title, Diana was said to be excited by the prospect.

Dodi’s father, Mohamed Al Fayed, the multi-millionaire former owner of Harrods, insists Diana was pregnant by his son and preparing to tell the young Princes about her forthcoming marriage when she returned to Britain on September 1 — the day after the crash — before they went back to boarding school.

However far-fetched it sounds, all the Establishment concerns about Diana were genuine. But could this really have led to her assassination? And if so, how could it have been carried out?

These questions are partially answered by the compelling testimony of 14 independent eyewitnesses near the crash scene that night. They say Diana’s car was surrounded at the entrance to the Alma tunnel by a phalanx of cars and motorcycles, which sped after the Mercedes.

The assumption has always been that the cars and bikes were carrying the paparazzi. By the Monday morning after the crash, outside the Alma tunnel, a huge message had appeared. ‘Killer paparazzi’ had been sprayed in gold paint on the walls.

No one, to this day, knows who put it there — or why they were not stopped by the French authorities from doing so.

Yet the paparazzi following Diana did not reach the Pont d’Alma tunnel until at least one minute after the crash, so they cannot be to blame.

Indeed, two years later they were cleared of manslaughter charges after the French state prosecutor said there was ‘insufficient evidence’ of their involvement in Diana’s death.

What happened is that the paparazzi had been deceived. In a clever ploy devised by Henri Paul, the Ritz had placed a decoy Mercedes at the front of the hotel to confuse the photographers, which allowed the lovers to slip out of the back door into a similar car.

The last picture of Diana peering from the rear window was taken by a France-based photographer who had seen through the ruse and was standing on the pavement by the hotel’s rear entrance watching as the ‘real’ Mercedes sped off.

Yet that Mercedes was definitely being hotly pursued when in the tunnel. The independent witnesses insist it was being followed not only by the black motorbike, but by two speeding cars, a dark saloon and a white turbo Fiat Uno.

There is no evidence to link these cars or the motorcycle to the paparazzi who had been waiting at the Ritz.

The saloon tail-gated the Mercedes, which made the chauffeur — thinking, wrongly, he was being pursued by paparazzi — drive even faster and more erratically. Meanwhile, the Uno accelerated, clipping the side of the Mercedes to push it to one side.

This maneuver allowed the black motorbike to speed past Diana’s car, with its two riders wearing helmets that hid their faces.

Witnesses claim that when the bike was about 15ft in front of the car, there was a fierce flash of white light from the motorbike. The suggestion is that this came from a laser beam carried by the pillion passenger and directed at the car.

The witnesses’ view is that the flash of light blinded Henri Paul temporarily. It was followed by a loud bang as the limousine swerved violently before slamming into the 13th pillar in the tunnel and being reduced to a mass of wrecked metal.

One of those eyewitnesses, a French harbour pilot driving ahead of the Mercedes through the tunnel, watched the scene in his rear-view mirror.

Chillingly, he recalls the black motorbike stopping after the crash and one of the riders jumping off the bike before going to peer in the Mercedes window at the passengers.

The rider, who kept his helmet on, then turned to his compatriot on the bike and gave a gesture used informally in the military (where both arms are crossed over the body and then thrown out straight to each side) to indicate ‘mission accomplished’.

Afterwards, he climbed back on the motorcycle, which raced off out of the tunnel. The riders on the bike, and the vehicle itself, have never been identified.

The harbour pilot, whose wife was with him in the car, has described the horrifying scenario as resembling a ‘terrorist attack’.

So, who could have been driving the bike and the other vehicles that did follow Diana’s car into the Alma tunnel that night?

Could they really have been part of the plot to get rid of Diana and her lover — a plot orchestrated by MI6 or the SAS regiment, as the latest sensational claims suggest?

After Diana’s death, I received a nine-line note in the post containing the names of two MI6 men who have spent their entire careers working at the heart of the British Establishment, representing the Government as senior diplomats, whom I will call X and Y.

Written in blue felt-tip pen on a flimsy piece of paper ripped from an A4 exercise book, the note said: ‘If you are brave enough, dig deeper to learn about X and Y. Both MI6. Both were involved at the highest level in the murder of the Princess.’ It signed off with the words: ‘Good luck.’

Of course, an unsigned note does not provide firm evidence, or anything like it, that MI6 spies were operating in Paris that evening or were connected with Diana’s death.

Yet their names came up again when I received a call from a well-placed source within the intelligence services.

The families of Henri Paul and Dodi al Fayed (pictured with Princess Diana) have always believed there was a murder plot

He named the same two men, X and Y, who had overseen the ‘Paris operation’ and said the crash was designed to frighten Diana into halting her romance with Dodi because he was considered an unsuitable partner.

‘We hoped to break her arm or cause a minor injury,’ said my informant. ‘The operation was also overseen by a top MI6 officer known as the tall man, who is now retired and living on the Continent. He admits it went wrong. No one in MI6 wanted Diana to be killed.’

And this week the men’s names were mentioned again, this time by Moscow intelligence.

According to the author of a new book, the Russian Foreign Intelligence Service, the SVR, knew that X and Y were in Paris on the night Diana died. And after the car crash the SVR set out to find out why.

Gennady Sokolov, whose book The Kremlin vs The Windsors will be published next year, told me this week: ‘Of course our people were following your agents.

They were senior MI6 officers operating secretly in Paris that night, without the knowledge of even French counter-intelligence. They left again after she was dead.

‘Her relationship and possible marriage to Dodi was deeply worrying to senior royals in Britain. The Princess’s phone was constantly listened to and she was followed all the time.

‘After the crash, public opinion was deliberately led astray. Scapegoats were created, such as the paparazzi and the drunk driver. There was a dance around Henri Paul, saying he was an alcohol addict, a virtual kamikaze, who helped to destroy them all. It is total nonsense.

‘From the very beginning, it was clear to me it was not just an accident. My sources in the SVR and other Russian secret services are sure it was a very English murder.

‘They have talked to me about an SAS squad called The Increment, which is attached to MI6, being involved in the assassination.

‘These guys work on the top level without leaving a single trace, and — perhaps — one was on the motorbike following Diana’s car.’ But why did none of this extraordinary story come out at the inquest into Diana’s death, which should have been the final word on it?

It’s true that 14 tunnel witnesses were at least allowed to appear or send their testimonies. But much of their vital information was completely submerged by the sheer volume of evidence presented over the six months of the hearing.

We heard that chauffeur Henri Paul and Dodi Fayed were killed instantly; that the sole survivor was the bodyguard Trevor Rees Jones, who suffered such devastating facial injuries he has no memory of events in the tunnel, and that with the pulmonary vein in her chest torn, Diana died nearly four hours later of heart failure and blood loss at Paris’s Pitie Salpetriere hospital.

But we also know that the inquest never unravelled the full truth. More than 170 important witnesses, including the doctor who embalmed Diana’s body (a process that camouflages pregnancy in post-mortem blood tests) were never called to the inquest.

One radiologist from Pitie Salpetriere hospital, who said that she had seen a small foetus of perhaps six to ten weeks in the Princess’s womb during an X-ray and a later sonogram of her body, was not questioned.

Instead, she was allowed by the judge heading the inquest, Lord Justice Scott Baker, to send a statement giving her current address in America and no more details.

Crucially, the hearing was cruelly unfair to chauffeur Henri Paul, who was vilified from the beginning.

On the day after the crash, French authorities insisted that he was an alcoholic and ‘drunk as a pig’ when he left the Ritz that night to drive the lovers to Dodi’s Paris apartment near the Champs-Elysees.

It has since emerged that the blood tests on Paul’s body had not been completed when they made the announcement to journalists.

Furthermore, the chauffeur had passed an intensive medical examination for flying lessons three days before the crash — his liver showed no sign of alcohol abuse.

A string of witnesses at the Ritz say Paul drank two shots of his favourite Ricard at the bar before taking to the wheel, which was confirmed by bar receipts at the hotel.

However, after a shambolic mix- up over his blood samples (deliberate or otherwise), it was pronounced by a medical expert at the inquest that Paul had downed ten of the aperitifs, was twice over the British driving limit and three times over the French one, when he drove the Mercedes that night.

Today is the 16th anniversary of Diana’s death and there are bunches of fresh flowers on the gilded gates leading to her London home, Kensington Palace. The flowers to commemorate the Princess may be fewer now, but there are still as many questions into her death as ever._________________--

Martin Van Creveld: I'll quote Henry Kissinger: "In campaigns like this the antiterror forces lose, because they don't win, and the rebels win by not losing."

1992 was the year that the relationship between Princess Diana and other senior British royals changed irreversibly. In June Diana collaborated with UK author Andrew Morton in a book which exposed Prince Charles’ relationship with his lover Camilla Parker-Bowles and Diana’s mistreatment by senior members of the royal family. The reaction was swift. Within 11 days of the book’s publication Diana received a bombshell letter from her father-in-law, Prince Philip. The letter alarmed her and Morton says that she sought out a solicitor to help draft a reply.1

Within months the Queen had moved to set up the royal Way Ahead Group – a committee dedicated to helping the royal family deal with major issues and planning the way forward. Its first meeting was held in November 1992 and in the following month the Queen requested the formal separation between Charles and Diana. This was announced in the House of Commons on 9 December.

In October 1995 Princess Diana penned a note in which she stated that she feared for her life and believed Prince Charles was “planning ‘an accident’ in my car.”2 She left the note with her butler, Paul Burrell, for safe-keeping. Later that month Diana met with her lawyer, Lord Victor Mishcon. He wrote the next morning that Diana had told him efforts could be made to “get rid of her… by some accident in her car such as pre-prepared brake failure.”3 Mishcon had this note typed up and kept it in his safe.

Five days after that lawyer’s meeting Diana pre-recorded the famous ‘Panorama’ interview with BBC journalist Martin Bashir. In the program – which went to air on 20 November – Diana declared “there were three of us in this marriage,” that she doubted Charles could adapt to being King, recounted her mistreatment by the royals, and stated she was a “very strong person” who would “fight to the end.”4

Diana also told several friends and family that she feared for her life and believed she could be killed in “an accident.”

Later that month her fears were vindicated when the brakes in her regularly-serviced Audi failed as she drove through the streets of London. She wrote about it to her close friends. Simone Simmons said she received a letter that said: “The brakes on my car have been tampered with. If something does happen to me it will be MI5 or MI6.”5

The month following the ‘Panorama’ interview, just seven days before Christmas, Diana received a hand-written letter from the Queen requesting her to divorce Prince Charles.

The decree absolute came into effect on 28 August 1996, but it was much more than a marital divorce. The Queen also moved to strip the princess of her HRH title and effectively remove her from the royal family.

Earlier, in March, Diana had been driving in London when she was hit by an out of control Fiat Uno. Her driver’s door was smashed in and witnesses said it was amazing she escaped unhurt. Although the police investigated this crash, their report has never been released.

Diana Starts Campaigning to Eradicate Landmines

Then around July 1996 Diana started taking an interest in the worldwide scourge of unexploded landmines and began collecting information and building a dossier on the industry. Her primary concern was humanitarian – to help the victims and to campaign for the eradication of all landmines.

In January 1997, launching her involvement in the campaign, Diana made a highly-publicised visit to Angola – this was the nation with the highest number of victims. She was filmed walking through minefields and stated that she sought to “focus world attention on this… largely neglected issue.”6

The following month she received a high-profile death threat. During a phone call from Nicholas Soames, Britain’s Minister of the Armed Forces, Diana was told to drop her anti-landmines campaign. Soames went on to say: “You never know when an accident is going to happen.”7

Although shaken, Diana told her friend Simone Simmons – who witnessed the call – that she was undeterred: “We must do something. We cannot allow this slaughter to continue.”8

Diana’s anti-landmine dossier grew in size to become several inches thick and she left copies with Simmons and another friend, Elsa Bowker. Her butler Paul Burrell said it contained “every fact of the landmine mission.”9

On 12 June 1997, just under 12 weeks before she died, Diana delivered a landmark speech at the Royal Geographic Society in London. She outlined the nature and scope of the landmine problem, she talked about the “evil that men do” and spoke about her vision to “end this plague on Earth.”10

Meeting the Al Fayeds

It was around this time Princess Diana accepted an offer from long-time family friend and owner of Harrods, Mohamed Al Fayed, to holiday with his family at his St Tropez villa in mid-July. The offer extended to Diana and her two sons, William and Harry. At that time Al Fayed was viewed by the British Establishment as a person of ill-repute – he had recently been heavily involved in the “cash for questions” scandal that helped bring about the downfall of Britain’s Tory Government in May 1997.

Both these actions – Diana’s increasingly public determination to eradicate the mines and taking William, the future King of England, on holiday with the Al Fayeds – were seen as a major challenge to the Establishment.

In the following days two critical high-level decisions were made.

First, senior royals called a special unscheduled meeting of the Way Ahead Group (WAG), chaired by the Queen. This meeting took place on 23 July and was preceded two weeks earlier by a special preparatory meeting attended by senior royal household officials, including the Queen’s private secretary, Robert Fellowes. The preparatory meeting was held on 8 July – three days before Diana and the princes left on the contentious Al Fayed holiday – and the full WAG meeting occurred on 23 July – three days after the holiday had concluded.

The second decision was for an arrangement to be made for friend of Diana, Rosa Monckton, to organise a holiday with Princess Diana. Monckton was a person who had two very close connections to MI6 – her brother Anthony was a MI6 officer working in Zagreb and her husband Dominic Lawson was a MI6 agent who was editor of the Sunday Telegraph.

Whilst in Hong Kong Monckton called Diana and arranged a one-on-one yachting holiday around the Greek islands, to take place in mid-August.

Diana, William and Harry left for the St Tropez holiday on 11 July, amidst a storm of controversy. Following their return nine days later, a romance developed between Diana and Mohamed Al Fayed’s son, Dodi.

On 30 July Diana broke off her nearly two year relationship with boyfriend Hasnat Khan and the following day left with Dodi on a week-long Mediterranean cruise.

Their romance blossomed throughout August, interrupted only by two events – the pre-arranged Monckton cruise and Diana’s three-day anti-landmine visit to Bosnia on 8 August.

Monckton Cruises with Diana for Intel

Diana and Monckton left for the Greek islands on the 15th – “it was just the two of us” Monckton later told the inquest.11 What she didn’t say was that their hired 20 metre boat, the Della Grazia, was shadowed by three super-yachts chartered by MI6, the Marala, the Sunrise and the Sea Sedan. These were used as decoys to distract the media – who were not looking for a smaller vessel, and despite a massive search, never actually found the boat Monckton and Diana were on.12

This strategy provided Monckton with five uninterrupted days on the ocean – time to seek inside information on Diana’s thoughts and intentions, to satisfy her intelligence masters.

Diana and Monckton returned from that holiday on 20 August – and 11 days later Diana lay dead in a Paris hospital.

On 22 August Diana and Dodi departed from Stansted airport headed for their final Mediterranean cruise. The two lovers would never see England again.

The following day they visited Repossi’s jewellery store in Monte Carlo. Diana saw and liked an engagement ring from the “Tell Me Yes” range. Dodi later arranged for that same ring to be transferred to Repossi’s Paris – he purchased it from there just hours before the couple died.

Diana and Dodi finished up their cruise in Sardinia and on the afternoon of Saturday, 30 August, they flew from Olbia to Paris, landing at Le Bourget airport at 3.20pm.

They were met by French police who provided an escort for the initial part of the journey into the city.13 The police later denied they were aware of Diana’s presence in France, falsely claiming the first they knew she was there was when they heard about the crash that occurred later that night.14

Threatened by Large, Dark Motorbikes

During that journey and other travels through the streets of Paris that evening the couple’s Mercedes was threatened by large, dark motorbikes, some carrying pillions. Witnesses in the car and back-up Range Rover described these bikes as “behaving dangerously.”15 The Mercedes driver, Philippe Dourneau, said they were “coming from all angles, from front and behind – they were all over the place.”16 They took many flash photos on these trips – none of which have ever been published. The evidence indicates they were operating as fake paparazzi, helping to create an environment where later the real paparazzi could be falsely held culpable for the crash.

Initially the couple travelled to Villa Windsor and then into the city, arriving at the Ritz Hotel – owned by Mohamed Al Fayed – at 4.35pm. Whilst there Diana made phone calls and had her hair done and Dodi visited Repossi’s and purchased the engagement ring.

They left the hotel at 7pm, heading for Dodi’s apartment near the Arc de Triomphe. Once in the apartment – where their luggage had earlier been taken from the airport – the couple relaxed, showered and prepared to leave for dinner, which was to be back at the Ritz._________________--

Martin Van Creveld: I'll quote Henry Kissinger: "In campaigns like this the antiterror forces lose, because they don't win, and the rebels win by not losing."

They left for the hotel at 9.30pm. Didier Gamblin was on security at the apartment and said the fake paparazzi went “completely crazy” and “set off like lunatics to follow the car.”17

Ritz CCTV records Diana and Dodi arriving at the front entrance of the hotel at 9.50pm. They initially went to the restaurant for dinner, but were stressed from the intimidating actions of the fake paparazzi and soon moved themselves upstairs to the sanctuary of the Imperial Suite.

The Decoy Plan – But Who Planned It?

It is after this that a decoy plan surfaced – a plan to leave for the return trip to the apartment from the rear of the hotel in a third car, whilst the primary Mercedes and the back-up Range Rover sat outside the front entrance, acting as decoys to divert the paparazzi.

Dodi approved a plan for the use of a third car to leave from the rear – but he was not told there would be no back-up car, only one bodyguard and a driver who was not licensed to chauffeur.

The evidence indicates the plan was devised by intelligence officers working from outside the hotel, employing two of the Ritz’s senior staff as agents – Henri Paul, the acting head of security and Claude Roulet, the vice-president of the hotel.

Henri Paul was the designated chauffeur – but he was not a driver, had never driven any Ritz guests in his 11 years at the hotel, and did not possess the required chauffeur’s ‘Grande Remise’ licence. To top it off, his best friend, Claude Garrec, told the police Henri didn’t like driving and “If he could avoid [it] he would.”18

Henri Paul had been receiving large sums of money from sources unknown in the months leading up to the crash. He had links to French and British intelligence agencies and on the night of his death was carrying 12,565FF ($2,500) on his person.

The third car was the only other car available – a Mercedes S280 with untinted windows, whose regular driver was Olivier Lafaye. Every evening Lafaye would finish work, return to the Ritz and park his vehicle in the same section of the Vendôme car park. He told the police that the other chauffeurs took their vehicles home – he was the only one without a garage.19

On that Saturday evening Lafaye parked his Mercedes S280 at 8.15pm. At 8.20 Claude Roulet is shown on CCTV leaving the Ritz Hotel. It is likely Roulet pointed out this Mercedes to other agents, who then had ample time to tamper with the vehicle prior to its final departure after midnight. Later evidence revealed that Diana – a person who many witnesses said always wore her seat belt – was sitting in the right rear seat with a jammed belt.20

Henri Paul departed from the hotel at 7.01pm, but quickly returned at 10.06 following the couple’s arrival. After 11pm he made four separate visits to the paparazzi waiting out the front of the Ritz. Henri was providing regular updates on how long it would be before the couple appeared. It was essential to the MI6 plan that the paparazzi were still present when Diana and Dodi departed – they would try to follow the car and later be falsely blamed for the behaviour of the fake paparazzi, the assassins.

Detailed Account of Diana’s Final Fatal Journey

The Mercedes S280 departed from the rear of the Ritz Hotel at 12.18am – there was no back-up car, only one bodyguard, untinted windows and at least one jammed seat belt in the back.

Some paparazzi were outside the rear and they immediately followed. Those out the front were quickly alerted and some of them joined the pursuit at the Place de la Concorde, where the Mercedes was held up by red lights.

Large unidentified motorbikes also joined in from around the Concorde. The Mercedes was pressured by constant flashing of cameras – many photos were taken but they have never been published.

The principal car left quickly from Concorde and witnesses on the riverside expressway saw a speeding Mercedes surrounded by several large, dark motorbikes. As the vehicle approached the exit it would take to head for Dodi’s apartment, a blocking motorbike was seen on its right.

Failure to make the appropriate exit forced the Mercedes S280 towards the Alma Tunnel. As it neared the tunnel one witness saw the motorbikes “in a cluster, like a swarm around the Mercedes.”21 People saw photos being taken – again unpublished.

Two separate witnesses saw the Mercedes – which was already in the left lane – overtaken on the left by one of the motorbikes carrying a pillion. At the same time, just as Henri entered the tunnel, he was confronted on the right by a slow-moving white Fiat Uno straddling the two lanes.

As the motorbike got in front, a bright flash was seen and Henri immediately lost control of the Mercedes. A split-second later the Mercedes side-swiped the Uno and then zig-zagged left, right and left before crashing into the 13th central pillar of the tunnel, at around 100 kph.

The car bounced back from the pillar, swung around 180 degrees and came to rest near the wall, facing the tunnel entrance.

It was 12.23am on Sunday, 31 August 1997.

Witnesses saw motorbikes and cars fleeing the tunnel – even though it is against the law in France to not stop and render assistance. None of the fleeing vehicles – including the white Fiat Uno – has ever officially been identified. And none of the drivers or riders have ever come forward.

The two people on the driver’s side – Henri Paul and Dodi Fayed – died on impact, and the two on the passenger’s side – Princess Diana and bodyguard Trevor Rees-Jones – survived the crash.

The French ambulance service (SAMU) immediately started receiving calls from passers-by. Dr. Arnaud Derossi was manning the phones and he allocated an ambulance carrying Dr. Jean-Marc Martino.

That ambulance left the Necker Hospital base at 12.28am and arrived at the crash scene at 12.40am. It took 12 minutes to travel 2.3 km – Diana’s ambulance travelled to the scene at around 11½ kph.

Upon arriving Martino straightaway phoned the base and spoke to Dr. Derossi, who then immediately left the base heading to the crash scene. It was left to an auxiliary to notify the base’s off-duty doctor, Marc Lejay, who was asleep at the time.22

Death by Doctors?

Princess Diana was heard talking by several witnesses, saying “Oh my God” and “what’s happened?”23 When the doctor performed the standard Glasgow Coma test to assess her condition in the car, she scored very well – 14 on a scale of 15.24

However there was reason to suggest there could be an internal injury – Diana had been involved in a fatal, high speed crash and wasn’t wearing a seat belt. This possibility was confirmed after Diana was finally transferred into the ambulance, 43 minutes after the crash. The initial examination revealed there was thoracic trauma bruising.25

From that point it became even more imperative that Diana was transferred immediately to a hospital – the thoracic trauma was a clear sign there could be a life-threatening internal injury.

Instead though, these two doctors – Martino and Derossi – tarried. The ambulance remained in the Alma Tunnel until 1.41am, one hour and 18 minutes after the crash.

And worse, they poured catecholamine into her to increase her blood pressure (BP), even though the BP was 70 and high enough to comfortably make the 5 km trip to the hospital.

And on top of that, Dr. Derossi informed the base there was “nothing for the thorax,” twice, even though he already was aware of the thoracic trauma.26 This ensured the hospital would not have a thoracic specialist on hand when Diana arrived.

After leaving the scene the ambulance travelled at what one witness described as “walking pace.”27 Then within sight of the hospital gates it stopped for five minutes. A journalist who followed the ambulance described it as “rocking” while stationary.28 He also witnessed a doctor transferring from the front to the back.29

Whatever they were doing inside the ambulance, it required four people – Drs Martino, Derossi and two interns (Barbara Kapfer and a person called “Fadi”).

There has never been a credible explanation for a stoppage so close to the hospital.

Martino delivered Diana to the La Pitié Salpêtrière Hospital at 2.06am – it was now one hour and 43 minutes since the crash.

Six minutes after arriving Princess Diana stopped breathing. She would never breathe again, despite the best efforts of the hospital’s doctors.

Dr. Bruno Riou ticked the suspicious death box on the death certificate.30 The public prosecutor’s office was then forced to order an autopsy, which was conducted by Professor Dominique Lecomte. She found no suspicious circumstances.

Dr. Riou was never asked why he was suspicious.

Conflicting Evidence Points to the Cover-Up

Later that morning Professor Lecomte carried out an autopsy on the driver, Henri Paul. Samples taken were tested early the following day – the results indicated the driver had a blood alcohol concentration (BAC) of 1.74, three times over the French limit.

This conflicted with evidence in the hotel prior to the departure of the Mercedes. Many witnesses testified that Henri was not drunk and this was supported by the CCTV footage, which showed him walking and acting normally.

Later testing revealed the blood had a carbon monoxide (CO) level of 20.7%. The combination of elevated BAC and CO meant Henri would have been incoherent, had a migraine headache and found it impossible to stay upright.

Yet that is not what the CCTV and witnesses saw.

A close analysis of Professor Lecomte’s autopsy of Henri Paul reveals she made at least 58 errors in her conduct and documentation.31 The police files reveal there were two lots of documentation for the one autopsy – each recording different samples taken and differing body measurements, weight and height.32

The evidence points to two bodies being in the room at the time of the autopsy – one was Henri Paul’s and the other was a person who had died in a fire with smoke inhalation.

Samples were taken from both bodies, but kept separate. The other person’s samples were used for the BAC testing and years later Henri’s true samples were used for DNA testing. The DNA-tested samples were never BAC tested and the BAC-tested samples were never DNA tested.

The paparazzi and Henri Paul were fraudulently set up to take the blame for the death of Princess Diana.

The truth is that the crash was orchestrated by MI6 (with assistance from the CIA and France’s DGSE and DST) on the orders of senior members of the British royal family, with the acquiescence of Tony Blair, Jacques Chirac and Bill Clinton – the leaders of the three leading Western arms-dealing nations.

Diana Princess of Wales – our humanitarian princess – was murdered in one of the most shocking inter-governmental operations followed by one of the most extensive cover-ups of our time.

Mercedes had been crashed and declared a write-off, two years before fatal accident

Ben Kentish @BenKentish 25 mins ago0 comments

The Mercedes was crashed at speeds of up to 120mph AFP/Getty
The car carrying Princess Diana when she was killed was a “hugely dangerous” rebuilt wreck that was not safe for use, a French TV programme has claimed.

The Mercedes was said to have been involved in another crash just two years before the one involving the princess.

The car was part of a pool provided by the Paris Ritz hotel and owned by a limousine company called Etoile Limousines.

Pascal Rostain, a photographer and co-author of a book called “Who Killed Lady Di?” told the M6 programme that the “hugely dangerous” car had been stolen and crashed at high speeds in 1995 - two years before Lady Diana's death.

“This Ritz car was a wreck”, he said. “It had crashed before, and been rolled over several times”.

The vehicle was due to be scrapped after its initial crash, but the then owner received permission to rebuild it.

Mr Rostain said one of his friends, a driver at the Ritz, had warned the hotel's manager, Frank Klein, that the car was unsafe two months before the accident.

He said "that it was necessary to get rid of this wagon”, the photographer claimed. “At more than 60 kilometres an hour (37 miles per hour) it didn't hold.”

The Ritz driver, named only as Karim, told him the car “was not reliable on the road”, he said.

“We were afraid to use it at any speed”, he added. “I told my manager that we had to sell this vehicle.”

The car originally belonged to an advertising executive called Eric Bousquet, who said he purchased it in 1994 – three years before Princess Diana’s death.

Mr Bousquet said that, in January 1995, the vehicle was stolen and taken on a joyride around Paris. The car was crashed at 100 miles per hour and ended up upside down in a field.

The Mercedes was deemed to be non-repairable and was earmarked to be scrapped.

“It was considered a dangerous car”, Mr Bouquet said. “I would have liked to take it back, but I was told no, it was not possible”.

However, the vehicle was recovered by a mechanic who patched it up and then sold it to Etoile Limousines.

A 2008 inquest in the UK found Princess Diana was unlawfully killed as a result of “grossly negligent” driving by her chauffeur, Henri Paul, who lost control of the vehicle at speeds of up to 120 miles per hour in the Alma Tunnel in Paris.

Mr Paul, who was killed in the accident, was found to be drunk at the time of the crash and was attempting to flee pursuing paparazzi photographers.

The car is now owned by Jean-Francois Musa, the former boss of Etoile Limousines. He is locked in a battle with British police, who seized the car around 15 years ago in order to carry out forensic tests.

It is now believed to be in a compound in the UK, according to the MailOnline._________________--

'I was happy to give it all up to go off and live with him': New tapes reveal how Diana fell 'deeply in love' with her 6ft 'Jack the Lad' police bodyguard before he died in a car crash (and she was sure he'd been 'bumped off')

For a young woman whose troubled life had become the focus of the world, the lure must have been irresistible. 'I want to bring a camera,' actor Peter Settelen told Princess Diana as he gave her voice-coaching sessions. 'I want you to see you and we will do your story. You can tell me your story, then you can watch.'

The video exercise would, he explained, 'show you who you are'.

No doubt the charming Settelen, who trained at the London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art, meant what he said. And in shooting a total of 16 videos of his pupil at Kensington Palace, the former Coronation Street actor undoubtedly achieved what Diana was after — more confidence and authority in her public speaking on issues such as Aids and eating disorders.

These were private £50 lessons at her London home, and the tapes are understood to have been kept under lock and key by Diana. But after her death, the tapes, containing five hours of footage, were discovered in the possession of her former butler, Paul Burrell.

Understandably, Settelen was concerned. He embarked on a legal battle over the material and won ownership of the tapes in September 2003.

Yet a few months later, most unchivalrously, he did a deal for an undisclosed sum of money for them to be shown on the American TV network, NBC.

Although NBC was universally condemned for the purchase, it broadcast the tapes in 2004. Critics described the programme as a 'ghoulish striptease' and said those involved were no better than 'grave robbers'.

In the videos, Diana tells actor Peter Settelen that her sex life with Prince Charles (pictured with Diana on their last official trip in Korea in 1992) deteriorated after the birth of Prince Harry +15

Now, 13 years on, Settelen has done another deal, this time with Channel 4, for the tapes to be seen for the first time in Britain. The programme, Diana: In Her Own Words, will be broadcast on Sunday, August 6, at 8pm.

Watching the Princess, many viewers are bound to wonder what the subject material had to do with voice coaching.

They will see a vulnerable Diana in January 1993, just a month after her separation from the Prince of Wales, talking openly about some of the most intimate aspects of her life: her relationship with Prince Charles (in particular the scarcity of lovemaking with him), his affair with Camilla Parker Bowles, and her police bodyguard Sergeant Barry Mannakee, with whom she admits she fell 'deeply in love'.

She tells Settelen that after the birth of Prince Harry her sex life with Charles had deteriorated: 'There was never a requirement for it from him — once every three weeks, about — and I kept thinking it followed a pattern. He used to see his lady [Camilla] once every three weeks before we got married.'

Describing her thoughts as the marriage moved to crisis point, Diana told her voice coach: 'If I could write my own script I would have my husband go away with his woman and never come back.'

Of course, it must be stressed that these tapes were never intended to be made public. But her mention of Sgt Mannakee is most telling.

The policeman is one of the most intriguing figures in Diana's life. A burly, 6ft tall East End 'Jack the lad' whose father was a Ford car worker at Dagenham, Mannakee was 37 when he was posted to work as a personal protection officer at Kensington Palace in 1985, a year after the birth of Prince Harry, when the royal marriage was already in difficulty.

Diana doesn't name Mannakee on the tape but refers to him as 'somebody who worked in this environment', telling Settelen: 'He was the greatest fellow I have ever had. I was always waiting around trying to see him. Um, I just, you know, wore my heart on my sleeve. I was only happy when he was around.'

Asked by Settelen if he provided 'the intimacy you weren't getting', she replies: 'Yeah.'

The Princess adds: 'I was quite happy to give it all up (her royal life), just to go off and live with him. Can you believe it?'

Laughing at the memory, she goes on: 'And he kept saying he thought it was a good idea, too.'

But Diana also says she saw Mannakee as a 'father figure'. She explains: 'I was like a little girl in front of him the whole time. Desperate for praise. Desperate.'

As for Mannakee, who was married with two children, he had an easy familiarity with the Princess that irritated other police bodyguards. Soon this evolved into a closeness that made his colleagues feel 'quite uncomfortable'.

'We could see she liked him,' says a former colleague. 'It was 'Barry this' and 'Barry that'. But we never dreamt there was anything between them because Barry was a blabbermouth about such things. We assumed he'd have boasted about it. But he didn't.'

At a time of mounting turmoil for the Princess, Mannakee was a good listener who became an unexpected confidant, especially on their 90-minute drives taking William and Harry to Highgrove in Gloucestershire for the weekend. The pair referred to them as their 'M4 chats'.

He would also often accompany her when she took William from Kensington Palace to his nursery school in Notting Hill.

Mannakee's relationship with the Princess also infuriated palace domestic staff. 'Diana was forever asking his opinion of just about everything and they saw this as Mannakee encroaching on their territory,' says one close figure.

Brazenly confident, Mannakee flirted with Diana in front of servants. Once, when she had dressed for a dinner engagement in a tight mini-skirt, she playfully wiggled her bottom at him. 'Do I look all right?' she asked him.

Apparently, Mannakee replied: 'Sensational, as you know you do.' Then he added: 'I could quite fancy you myself.' Diana giggled and retorted: 'But you already do, don't you?'

Yet could Diana have been merely indulging in a fantasy about an affair with the entertaining police officer?

On the tape, as Channel 4 viewers will see, she denies having a full affair with him. Asked by Settelen if there was a sexual relationship between them, her reply is 'No'.

In later years, when emboldened to discuss her relationships with men more freely, although she spoke about James Hewitt, her Household Cavalry officer lover, Mannakee's name as a lover never passed her lips.

Settelen also tape-recorded Diana (pictured with Princes Harry and William in 1993) saying, shockingly: 'I think he [Mannakee] was bumped off' +15

In 1986, after Mannakee had worked for the Princess for a year, he was called before his superiors and challenged about being 'over-familiar' with her. They decided he should be put back in uniform and transferred from royal to diplomatic protection. A year later he was killed in a road crash, as a pillion passenger on a Suzuki motorcycle that collided with a car driven by a girl of 17.

It was Prince Charles who broke the news of his death to Diana, as they were travelling to the 1987 Cannes Film Festival on an official engagement.

The Princess is said to have wept uncontrollably and torn at her clothes in the car en route to RAF Northolt for their flight to the South of France. She suggested the Prince was cruel in breaking the news to her at that time.

'Charles 'just jumped it on me like that,' she said, 'and I wasn't able to do anything'. Within minutes she had to put on her public face. 'I just sat there all day going through this huge high-profile visit to Cannes,' she later recalled. 'Thousands of Press. Just devastated. Just devastated.'

Reflecting on the matter to Settelen six years later, she said: 'I should never have played with fire, but I did, and I got burned.'

He tape-recorded her saying, shockingly: 'I think he was bumped off.' Of course, there have been conspiracy theories that the car crash in Paris which led to Diana's own death was staged deliberately because she was with the 'unsuitable' Dodi Fayed.

But the allegation that Mannakee's death was anything other than an accident has never been taken seriously. After these remarks were first broadcast in 2004, Scotland Yard considered re-opening the investigation into the policeman's death.

Claims had surfaced over the years that Mannakee had been deliberately killed by intelligence officers, presumably because of fears of a scandal. But they were never substantiated and the Yard inquiry went nowhere.

For her part, Diana continued to be haunted by the relationship. 'I used to have really disturbing dreams about him,' she said in the tapes used by NBC.

'He was really unhappy, wherever he's gone to. And I went and found out where he was buried. I went to put some flowers on his grave.'

According to Diana, that was when she realised he had been cremated. 'He was just chucked over the ground,' she recalled.

'That absolutely appalled me, but there we were. I wasn't in any position to do anything about it. The day I did that (left flowers), the dreams stopped. It's strange, isn't it?'

In an attempt to quash the conspiracy theories, Joy Chopp, the mother of the 17-year-old novice driver whose car collided with Mannakee, has said 'it was just an accident'.

Princess Diana also relates on tape the story of her first meeting with Charles.

He 'followed me around like a puppy', she says, and made a fumbling attempt to kiss her, which she repelled.

'He was all over me like a rash. He'd ring me up every day for a week, and then he wouldn't speak to me for three weeks. Very odd. And the thrill when he used to ring up was so immense and intense.'

Diana also recalls how she confronted Charles over Camilla.

'I remember saying to my husband: 'Why, why is this lady around?' and he said: 'Well, I refuse to be the only Prince of Wales who never had a mistress.' '

Diana had been introduced to Peter Settelen by her fitness instructor Carolan Brown, who had worked with him on exercise videos. He had played the Duke of Windsor in an ITV comedy series, a prince in an episode of Jackanory Playhouse and a commando in the World War II epic A Bridge Too Far.

When he encountered Diana, she was a princess suffering from low self-esteem, full of ideas about her public responsibilities but with little idea how to marshal them.

On one occasion, when Settelen accompanied her to make a speech, he used a bizarre technique, telling her to see herself as a prostitute whose life had hit rock bottom but who had turned things around. Afterwards, Settelen has recalled, as her car arrived she 'opened the door, kicked her leg out and said: 'Not bad for a hooker, eh?' '

Having clients talk freely about themselves was part of Settelen's technique. He explained that it was a key to injecting passion into the spoken word.

He taught Diana how to breathe properly and appear more conversational in her delivery. His unorthodox approach also included placing marbles in clients' mouths as he massaged their shoulders, though he didn't do this to Diana.

All the same, he is credited with giving her a new assertiveness. Certainly, some weeks after these sessions began, Diana surprised an audience she was addressing on issues such as Aids with dramatic language and flourishes as she talked of the 'aching loneliness and rejection' of sufferers.

But from the very beginning of his coaching, there was unease about him filming Princess Diana and encouraging her to open up about her life.

For hour after hour, over the weeks, she sat on her pink drawing room sofa facing Settelen and his camera mounted on a tripod.

One senior palace figure became very concerned about Diana being videoed and recalls asking her where the tapes were.

'She told me: 'Oh, Peter's got them,' he says. 'And I said: 'What! You must get them back. They could be his pension.' '

But such confessionals were not new to Diana. She had secretly talked to writer Andrew Morton, who first revealed the problems in her marriage. Later there was her raw, confessional BBC Panorama interview.

Today, living in a modest semi in Twickenham, South-West London, Settelen, 65, is a director of Chakra Productions Ltd, which provides 'support activities to performing arts'. His wife Sarah resigned as a director in 2014.

Mrs Settelen is director of a charity called The Promise, helping children with special needs in Russia, which was set up following the death of their 'profoundly disabled' daughter Ellie in 2000.

Over the years, Settelen has continued to offer 'motivational mentoring', public speaking training and 'crisis communications' advice.

He has one recent acting credit, in a short 2015 European crime film called Schwarzwald.

His website lists previous corporate clients including the Metropolitan Police, the Labour Party as well as journalists from the BBC, ITV and Channel 4.

Describing what he does, it says: 'Peter's work originally came to public attention through the help he gave to Diana, Princess of Wales.

'During the most difficult period in her all-too-short life, he helped her to move from 'Shy Di' to become a confident and passionate public speaker, able to express what she really wanted and needed to say.

'As her adviser, speech coach and speechwriter, he worked with her on subjects ranging from Aids to eating disorders through to women's mental health.'

Undaunted by the controversy about the planned broadcast on Channel 4, Settelen's lawyer, Marcus Rutherford, said last night: 'His view has always been that the tapes were as much private to him as they were to Diana. Had she still been with us, I have no doubt they would have remained private as long as both Peter and Diana wanted it.

'It took a lot of persuading for Peter to accept that the time had come to let people in the UK look at the material itself and form their own views.'

For its part, Channel 4 says: 'This unique portrait of Diana gives her a voice and places it front and centre at a time when the nation will be reflecting on her life and death.' True, it was hardly becoming of the Princess to talk so liberally about her sex life. But even so, how many people will excuse Peter Settelen — and Channel 4 — for airing these private thoughts so publicly?

The brother of Diana, Princess of Wales, has claimed he was lied to about the desire of William and Harry to walk behind their mother’s coffin.

Earl Spencer said he raised objections with royal officials before being told her sons wanted to do it, adding he later realised this was not the case.

He also described the feeling of walking behind Diana’s coffin in the funeral cortege as the “most horrifying half hour of my life”, acknowledging he still has nightmares about the “harrowing” event from 20 years ago.

But Spencer said he believed the experience was a “million times worse” for Diana’s sons.

William, now the Duke of Cambridge, was 15 and Prince Harry 12 when their mother was killed in a car crash in Paris on 31 August 1997.

A huge outpouring of grief followed her death, which shocked the world. Spencer paid tribute to his sister during the funeral service at Westminster Abbey, in a highly personal speech which highlighted her difficulties with the media and the royal family.

He promised to care for William and Harry, with his reference to the Spencers as Diana’s “blood family” seen as deeply wounding to the Windsors.

Spencer said he understood the Queen believed he had “every right to say whatever he felt” and recalled keeping the speech secret to prevent anyone else having a say in it.

As the 20th anniversary of Diana’s death nears, Spencer told BBC Radio 4’s Today programme it was a “very bizarre and cruel thing” for Diana’s two sons to be asked to walk behind her body.

He said his sister would not have wanted it and told officials of his objection, adding: “Eventually I was lied to and told they wanted to do it, which of course they didn’t but I didn’t realise that.”

Spencer described the feeling of walking behind Diana’s coffin as the “worst part of the day by a considerable margin”.

He said: “The feeling, the sort of absolute crashing tidal wave of grief coming at you as you went down this sort of tunnel of deep emotion, it was really harrowing and I still have nightmares about it now.

“So there was the inner turmoil of thinking, ‘My God this is ghastly’, but then the point of thinking these two boys are doing this and it must be a million times worse for them.

“It was truly horrifying, actually.

“We would walk a hundred yards and hear people sobbing and then walk round a corner and somebody wailing and shouting out messages of love to Diana or William and Harry, and it was a very, very tricky time.”

Spencer said he saw the eulogy for his sister as a chance to “speak for somebody who had no longer got a voice”, adding: “I don’t feel I said many pointed things. I believe that every word I said was true and it was important for me to be honest.

“I wasn’t looking to make any jabs at anyone actually. I was trying to celebrate Diana – and if by doing that it showed up particularly the press, I think, in a bad way, well, they had that coming.”

He said he had reread the eulogy speech for the first time in 20 years before the BBC interview.

Asked if the Queen or anyone else had said anything to him about the speech, Spencer replied: “Somebody I know very well said to her: ‘What do you think?’ and she said: ‘He had every right to say whatever he felt. It was his sister’s funeral.’ So that’s all.”

Spencer said the highly personal nature of the eulogy meant he wanted to “protect it before delivering it” so no one else could have a say in it.

He added he had read the speech to Diana’s body in St James’s Palace chapel a couple of days before she was buried, saying: “I know people will think I’m some sort of fruitcake but I do remember hearing almost some sort of approval then, and then I realised actually I had probably got the thoughts in order.”_________________--

In the bombshell recordings, the late Princess reveals intimate details of her failed marriage to Prince Charles

COMMENTS BY KEITH PERRY

Earl Spencer has pleaded with Channel 4 in an effort to try and stop Princess Diana’s explosive ‘video diaries’ being broadcast next week.

In the bombshell recordings, Diana reveals intimate details of her failed marriage to Prince Charles and criticises the royal family.

She also admits she considered running away with her police bodyguard.

Friends of the Earl said he believes the 90-minute programme, Diana: In Her Own Words, due to be screened next Sunday, three weeks before the 20th anniversary of her death, is a betrayal of her memory and privacy.

It reveals Diana at her most vulnerable and lowest ebb.

Her marriage had just collapsed and she appears haunted by episodes from her past.

The Mail on Sunday reports that the Earl, acting for the Spencer family, contacted Channel 4 warning that broadcasting the tapes for the first time on British television would cause profound distress, particularly to William and Harry.

But Channel 4 refused to back down and sent the Earl a detailed response explaining the importance of the film and why it was pressing ahead with the broadcast.

The prospect of millions watching Diana rdisclosing the most personal aspects of her life has troubled St James’s Palace and

The Spencer family, who fought an unsuccessful legal battle to seize control of the tapes.

They were recorded by her voice coach Peter Settelen at Kensington Palace when her marriage had already broken down and she was trying to start a new life away from Charles.

Rosa Monckton, one of Diana’s closest friends, said: "I think it’s completely inappropriate that they are being shown publicly.

"The tapes should have been sent to the boys. They should definitely have been sent to her sons.

"I just think it is absolutely disgusting."

In all there were 12 video tapes – dubbed the ‘dynamite diaries’ – and Channel 4 has based its documentary on seven of them. Five are said to be missing._________________--

Now the Princess of Wales’s former aide says Channel 4 is right to show her private tapes to mark the 20th anniversary of her death.

Patrick Jephson was equerry and private secretary to Diana between 1988 and 1996, and revealed that the Royal family claimed the late Princess was “mentally ill” as their "weapon of choice".

Speaking on the hype surrounding the broadcast, Jephson said: “I find it difficult to share some critics’ well-aired outrage over its use of videotape shot by Diana’s voice coach during their practice sessions.

“These are definitely not sneaky snapshots of a woman caught unawares, but instead show a professional public figure, methodically honing her speaking skills in front of the voice coach’s camera.

“Bewitchingly, they reveal a thoughtful and often funny Princess finding her voice as the teller of her own story. It was this rare ability to infuse her public speeches with disarming personal candour that made Diana such an effective communicator.”

He added to Radio Times: “It was a time when, with good reason, Diana felt herself to be under attack from advisers and friends of her estranged husband, who had chosen as their main weapon the accusation that she was mentally ill. Classy.

“She had every reason to be angry, trapped with the knowledge that her husband loved another woman.

“What Diana fans should find wonderfully appealing about this film – and her critics find naggingly disconcerting – is that the figure we see on screen is unmistakably articulate, realistic, modest and fun.

“And if it takes a little longer to digest, at least it won’t have you reaching for the sick bag.”

It comes as Channel 4 defended its decision to air the controversial tapes after facing a backlash from royalists and Diana’s brother Earl Charles Spencer.

A Channel 4 spokesperson told Express.co.uk: “The excerpts from the tapes recorded with Peter Settelen have never been shown before on British television and are an important historical source."

Kensington Palace declined to comment on the Diana tapes when approached for comment by Express.co.uk.

The full interview is available to read in the latest edition of Radio Times, which is out now.

He said he was not convinced by any of the conspiracy theories about the death of Princess Diana.

He added: “Given that she was in a car being driven at high speed in a chase involving paparazzi, given that the driver had been drinking, and given that she wasn't wearing a seat belt, it doesn't surprise me that the car crashed and that she was killed.

“It's no coincidence that the only survivor of the crash was wearing his seat belt.

“Sadly, this combination of driving at high speed, drink driving, and not wearing a seat belt kills people all the time.

“We don't think anything of it, because a fatal crash in those circumstances isn't at all surprising.

“But because Princess Diana was one of the most famous and iconic women on the face of the planet, people looked for some deeper meaning, unable or unwilling to believe she could be killed in so mundane and pointless a way.

“People wanted to believe there was something more, but there wasn’t.”

Mr Pope said if the establishment chose to kill people causing it trouble the body count would be much higher.

He added: “As for the argument that she was killed because she was creating problems for the establishment, people create problems for the establishment all the time.

“If the government started assassinating everyone who made a nuisance of themselves, they'd be at it full time.”
